This. Eventually people get sick of a game and drift off. No World of Warcraft 2. D&D requires more effort so I expect peopke/DMs to drift off faster.

They probably woukd have. 1E lasted 12 years, 2E 11. Basic 17 but with at least 3 revisions maybe 5 or 6. Bookscan indicated sales were down. Iirc WotC said something like Covid was peak sales.

So I have been waiting for the new books to come out with what's happening with Shade. My current campaign is winding down level 13. 2 more sessions left maybe. It was converted from 5.0 around level 4. Currently talking things over with my players to figure out a new hook. One of them is...

Potentially yes. Leomunds Secure Bunker defeats them as well.

Already a thing in 5.5 phb. Theres a reason ECMO3 and myself have been mentioning it.

Leomunds Secure Bunker. I miss the old version.

5.5 a place holder for me until 6E or quitting D&D. I'll run older editions or Star Wars occasionally to break up the monotony of 5E. It'll do for now.

Its because the OP specifically said you kinda like the changes. Just means most here aren't hard coded to hate all change as long as we like it to some extent. 5.5 good enough for now if they did 6E instead and didnt screw in up thats fine. I suspectvin 2 years ir so I'll be sick of...

Thinking of buying latest DLC for Stellaris. Wifes doing impossible mode challenge on BG3. She's faceplanting the ground a lot lol. Made it to lvl 7. Fantasy Vietnam on steroids.

Australians go to insult for us involves indecent acts with sheep. My go to response is to call them a pack of try hard Americans. Gets them going. Australian gaming server lol.

New grogs. All those new 5E players probably like 5E. So any radical departure wont be D&D to them. I'm already seeing it with some lol.

Think ive mentioned talent trees as well. My current test bed uses them. Not sure it gets tge complexity/simple thing right but theyre interesting art least. .6E coukd yse them or even go more Shadowdark approach. I woujd probably make 6E resemble 5E though even if you do in a different...

I think dragon riding rules are fine. Pet dragon not so much. Drakewarden gets a weak one of suppose.

I respect the various threads tying things togather. The Netheril/shade thing tgats been going since around 1996 to now. Having it return in 4E was cool. Amaunator returning cool. Nuking everything else not so much. Its not foundational but I liked the old PDK lore not the Amethyst...

Shade is kinda back. Its refounded, not flying and settled by survivors of Shades fall.

I dont think most would like my ideal D&D. Im not sure i have an ideal D&D. It would draw heavily on 5E, 2E and B/X. Pick a direction go from there.

That's perfectly valid. Erm I mean go stand in the corner and you should feel bad for your opinion. Phew forgot where I was.

My famings falling off a cliff. PC occasionally, PS5/entire generation kinda sucks. So basically playingv2 games occasionally and retrogames.

Forums are fairly useless for measuring this. If every forum that was somewhat relevant, reddit, YouTube, Facebook etc were singing the same tune and overlapping IRL then the bitching starts to matter.

Its on GoG. Graphics are old but its still great.
